rhump Member 21 Member For: 17y 9m 29d Location: Townsville Posted 14/03/07 03:39 AM Share Posted 14/03/07 03:39 AM (edited) Just test mine last week and got 459km out of a full tank of PULP.A little bit of city (10mins) then 20min on freeway (100km/h).Using Cruise Control will also help. I have the 6 speed Manual. Edited 14/03/07 03:43 AM by rhump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 14/03/07 04:31 AM Share Posted 14/03/07 04:31 AM For the last 2 weeks, we have been using Boost 98 only, while economy as dropped, to around 400kays a tank, 50/50 city/country driving, the increase in performance is very noticeable.And the fact that when sloptimax and Ultimate were 129.9p/l on monday night, we filled up at 122.5p/l. Over the course of a year that would be a pretty good saving. And we are only loosing about 20kms a tank. I justify this little difference by the thinking that I am saving...$4.50 per tank x 2 tanks = $9.00 weekAnd 9.00 of fuel will get me alot further than 40 kms.And 9.00 a week x 52 weeks = 468 bucks a year, theres the injectors paid for. But when I start driving again it will be atleast 3 tanks a week ( I can't help myself ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
